#MeTime: There’s a lot of reasons to be excited here: Mercury, Uranus, Mars, Neptune, and Venus all portend for a lot of creative and inspired energy coming into your life, perhaps more than you’ve seen in months. So clear your calendar of any distractions that don’t support that creativity.

#Heartstrings: On the other hand, when you’re deep diving in creative waters you’re not usually in the best communication or contact scenarios with those closest to you. Fortunately, for everyone, you should be able to bob up from those murky waters by the 10th and put your energy into what gives you pleasure and keeps you feeling juicy.

#MoneyMoves: Although the juices are flowing, it seems like it’s more toward the end of the month when you’ll feel like you can reap more tangible benefits from your job or work. There could be a mild shake-up in your daily routine that may ultimately improve things for you long-term though.
